Who owns Swinging Bridge? Pawhuska council discusses accepting donation of landmark
The Pawhuska City Council voted 5 to 0 on Aug. 13 in favor of determining conclusively who owns a local landmark and tourist attraction known as the Swinging Bridge. The pedestrian bridge, one end of which is located at Kihekah Avenue and East 2nd Street, dates back nearly a century, to 1926. It spans Bird Creek and was originally the primary option for people who wanted or needed to cross the creek into and out of the Pawhuska downtown area. According to a sign placed near the bridge, it was designed by J.M. Buckley, who was the city engineer. The bridge was refurbished in 1970.

In just a year's time, though, the Sooners' cornerback room looks drastically more experienced — and could make a case as the deepest position on an Oklahoma defense that heads into the SEC with exceedingly high expectations.
